* What it does (using the linkedin block):When installed correctly a user can log in using their linked in account.

1. The user clicks the login with linkedin button2. A popup opens that redirects to the linkedin page asking for your linkedin username/pass and yourapproval to give moodle access to your profile. If the user was already logged into linkedin in someother browsers window the popup only asks permission to login using linkedin3. When the users finishes the linked in auth the Moodle page reloads and redirects the user the a form asking for the users email. 4. When finished the users is logged into Moodle and profile information is shown in the linkedin block.

1. Add the auth plugin to /auth/linkedin2. In Moodle go to the plugins page for authentication and enable linkedin3. visit https://www.linkedin.com/secure/developer and click Add New Application.4. Enter your Moodle website details, most important field: Integration URL, use the wwwroot of your Moodle installation5. Once received from LinkedIn Enter you key / secret to the LinkedIn authentication plugin settings page in Moodle

* Linkedin block1. Install the linkedin block 2. Go to the Siteadmin -> notifications to install the block3. Add the block to the moodle frontpage

I got the following error message when I tried to install:
Plugin "mod_linkedin" is defective or outdated, can not continue, sorry.

Sorry Bas for being slow to respond. I assumed the system would automatically email me when you responded. I will click the RSS link.
I used the latest plugin at Sep 11 auth_linkedin_moodle23_2012071600 which looks the same file name as you currently have in your download area.

It works fine. The error was on my side. I had uploaded the zip file to mod subdirectory as I had done with other modules but when I re-read the installation instructions I realised the authentication plugin should be unpacked into the moodle/auth subdirectory. I also updated to your latest (Sep 18) version. I installed the blocks zip file in the moodle/blocks subdirectory and tested them and they appear to work well.
